Ready to turn your passion for community support into action? Volunteer to help sort, label, and/or repack food into family-friendly portions for neighbors across our 16-county service area!
Group and Individual Volunteer Opportunity:
We always need help ensuring that nourishing food is ready for distribution! During a shift, you might sort fresh produce, label frozen pizzas, transform 1,000 pounds of potatoes into family-friendly 5-pound bags, or place packaged products into boxes. Our volunteer projects are safe, well-organized, and led by our friendly and knowledgeable staff. No experience necessary!
